Okay well I understand the Mali 400mp isn't the newest architecture or thw newest gpu out there but it's pretty decent enough and it's 4 cores.

On smartbench 2012 the gaming index score is only around 1500 which is so so bad, why is this? Even when I look at some scores from other phones; single core devices that come out over a year ago score higher gaming index scores,
Can somebody explain why?

Also what I'm confused about is the galaxy s2 gets higher score and this has a lower gpu clock speed than the s3, I'm confused.

Maybe its not optimised for multiple cores?

Yeah maybe it's not optimized for multiple cores and it maybe testing a low frequency core and therefore getting a bad score

Do yoir think its just not optimised for the Mali? Because the tegra 3 seems to get a good score and this has 4 cores

I have no idea, yeah standard has made my scores a lot lower, but a pain version gives you a highest score I honestly don't understand
